British slang, particularly used in Scotland and the north of England, meaning thoroughly drunk. When someone is stoated, they've had far too much and are likely bouncing off walls — which may well be the origin, as 'stoat' in Scottish English can mean to stagger or bounce. The word has a satisfying bluntness to it, painting a picture of someone who is not just merry but genuinely off-balance and unsteady on their feet.
He came back from the golf club dinner completely stoated and somehow convinced himself he could make a toastie at 2am.
